Tourism Noosa has officially launched Noosa Eco Check 2.0, revamping the design to provide additional tips and tools for local businesses wanting to become more eco-friendly.
Tourism Noosa CEO Steve McPharlin said that their job was to make the entire industry excited about being environmentally friendly.
“We need to be responsible members of our destination, inspiring everyone to implement suggested strategies to become more environmentally friendly and sustainable.”
Tourism Noosa Environment and Sustainability Manager, Juanita Bloomfield said that four years on from the first launch of Noosa Eco Check, the design has been revamped with added interactive videos and case studies.
“There are now 31 new tips and tricks for members and businesses undertaking the program and 17 case studies from local businesses to show what works for them. At the end of the program there is a sustainability action plan to help guide businesses on how to implement these strategies,” Juanita said.
“A big thing for us has been getting rid of single use plastic. We want to be one of the most environmentally sustainable places in the world.”
